Abstract
A temporary fixing structure includes one hooking part 14 a provided on a ceiling of a compartment or a room; the other hooking part 7 a that is provided on an information device 1 , and is rotatably hooked on the one hooking part 14 a ; and a stopper holding back rotation of the information device due to self-weight moment exerted on the information device 1 in hooked condition of these hooking parts 14 a and 7 a in a temporally fixed posture of the information device.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1. A temporary fixing structure for an electronic information device, comprising:
a first hooking part provided onto a ceiling of a compartment or a room;
a rising part configured to rise from a surface of the electronic information device, and formed on a bracket fixed onto the surface of the electronic information device;
a second hooking part formed on a tabular portion bent from the rising part, and rotatably hooked to the first hooking part; and
a stopper holding the electronic information device in a posture inclined against the ceiling by holding back rotation of the second hooking part due to a torque exerted on the electronic information device, which is caused by self-weight moment of said electronic information device.
2. The temporary fixing structure for the electronic information device according to claim 1 , wherein the stopper comprises a roof section formed on a member integrally formed with the first hooking part to hold back the rotation of the second hooking part by abutting an end of the tabular portion.
3. The temporary fixing structure for the electronic information device according to claim 2 , wherein the end of the tabular portion is bent upward.
4. The temporary fixing structure for the electronic information device according to claim 2 , wherein the roof section is made of an up-convexed part formed on the member integrally formed with the first hooking part.
5. The temporary fixing structure for the electronic information device according to claim 1 , wherein the stopper is made of a down-convexed part formed on a member integrally formed with the first hooking part.
6. The temporary fixing structure for the electronic information device according to claim 1 , further comprising a part integrally formed with the first hooking part configured to be attached to the surface of the electronic information device by a fastening mechanism, thus securing the electronic information device in a second posture in which the surface of the electronic information device is substantially parallel to the ceiling, wherein
the posture inclined against the ceiling corresponds to a temporarily fixed posture of the electronic information device while the electronic information device is being installed in the compartment or room,
the second posture corresponds to a regular fixed posture of the electronic information device while the electronic information device is operative to convey information to a user.
7. The temporary fixing structure for the electronic information device according to claim 2 , wherein the roof section abuts on the end of the tabular portion while the electronic information device is in a regular fixed posture in which the surface of the electronic information device is substantially parallel to the ceiling.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
